From the Perl6-Bible: http://search.cpan.org/dist/Perl6-Bible/lib/
Perl6/Bible/S03.pod:
I think this confirms that the answer is yes. See the following at
the above URL:
Note that ?^ is functionally identical to !.?| differs from || in
that ?| always
returns a standard boolean value (either 1 or 0), whereas ||
returns the actual
value of the first of its arguments that is true.
Since when is the string "!.?|" an operator??? Or "?^", "+|", "~|",
"?|", etc. I
think Larry's gone off the deep end on this one. It may be an
incredibly powerful
and expressive language, but it seems _really_ strange, and probably
will produce
the best Obfuscated-code contest the world has ever seen. (Better
even than the
Perl5 one).
Cheers,
Kyle Moffett
